More Reasons to Vote Against Kerry

Just because I didn't post in the past couple of days doesn't mean that I haven't been keeping track of the reasons not to vote for John Kerry. Here's a big one:

4. Voter fraud. In Milwaukee the City asked the County government to print an extra 300,000 ballots in preparation for November 2nd. That's on top of the previous printings of some 600,000+ ballots, for a total of more than 900,000 ballots to be printed and available for "use," in a city that only has 600,000 or so residents, and only around 350,000 or so registered voters. Thus, even if 66% of the voters who are registered turn out on November 2nd -- which would obviously be an extraordinary turnout -- the City will still only have have 200-250,000 voters, meaning that there will be 700,000 more ballots available for "use" than they need, i.e., two or three extra for each City voter.

And what will that "use" of these extra ballots be? Recall that Milwaukee was the place last time around in 2000 that Democratic operatives were trading cigarettes for votes, and then use your imagination. Wisconsin went for Gore by 5,000 votes in 2000. Do the math.

Democrats, of course, will say that the extra ballots are only needed to ensure that people who might spoil their ballots will have access to replacements. I don't know what's more insulting about this argument: that the Democrats think the public and the press are stupid enough to buy this horse manure (well, maybe the press is), or that the Democrats apparently think that their own inner city voters are so stupid that they will spoil two or three ballots apiece before they get it right?

Democrats are going to cheat, cheat, cheat, and then litigate, litigate, litigate if their cheating doesn't work. The only way to beat them is to work, work, work and vote, vote, vote.

UPDATE: The 2000 cigarettes-for-votes story from Milwaukee apparently wouldn't be enough to get any attention this year. In Ohio Democrats are apparently trading crack cocaine for voter registrations. Here's the link: http://www.toledoblade.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20041019/NEWS09/410190343. You can't make this stuff up.
